A leading authority in the world of card cheating, Sal's been on notable TV shows, including Travel Channel'sGame On, Americaand National Geographic'sCasino Wars. Off-air, Sal channels his twenty-six years of experience into lecturing, as well as teaching the Casino industry how to expose card cheats. And now he's joining usAt The Tableto reveal how to use those same card techniques to create real moments of impossibilities for your audiences. Here are a few things you'll learn: The Poker Routine:Sal's version of the Vernon Poker deal with an impossible ending. Sal deals five poker hands, with each hand getting stronger than the last. When he flips his hand over, there is only one card in the deck that will allow him to win. Sal hands the deck to the spectator, who deals down to any random card, flips it over and it is exactly the one card in the deck Sal needs to win. Sal's Ace Openers:Sal discusses how to quickly open a set by finding 4 aces. Sal covers a number of methods, and one whereby the spectator freely shuffles the deck. A Hold'em Stack:Sal shuffles the deck and deals out a poker hand. Sal deals a pair of aces to his partner at the imaginary poker table, and then lays down a pair of aces on the flop for a big win. Heel Peek:A simple yet deceptively invisible peek. Four Ace Routine:Sal magically finds each ace and throws them into the middle of the deck one by one. All the while, all four aces are controlled to be able to go into any other Ace routine. Sal's Estimation Aces:Sal displays and teaches an ungodly technique of cutting to Aces. Memory Opener:Sal takes out a packet of cards and looks at them for only a second. The spectator removes a card, and Sal is able to determine which card is missing. He repeats the effect two more times, this time with larger packets and a greater number of cards being removed. It's as magical as it is impossible. Binary Blockbuster:Two spectators think of opposite color cards. Sal spreads the cards, turns away, and the spectators secretly switch the two cards they thought of. Sal then randomly deals down the cards face down into two piles, and when he flips them over, he's miraculously separated the red and the black cards - the only exception is the spectators' chosen cards. It's a unique oil and water meets triumph effect. 4 Pocket Clocking:Sal deals out three packets of cards of varying sizes, and places the rest of the deck on the table. He briefly looks at the cards, and has the spectator remove a card from each pile. Sal looks at the cards again and is able to determine which card is missing. Three Card Monte:Sal shows how to do the classic Three Card Monte and how there is no hope of winning. Altered Traits:A four-card packet trick with blue-backed cards. One by one, each face down card turns over magically, until they all turn face up. When you flip all of them them over, the blue-back cards are now red. ----- Sal Piacente is best known as an outstanding magician and respected security consultant to casinos around the world.

Additionally, the memory skills Piacente possesses makes him an unstoppable, one-of-a-kind force."-Lee Asher(CardStar) Brooklyn native, Sal Piacente, is 30-year casino industry veteran and the consummate authority on casino game protection (safeguarding the profitability of table games) and memory enhancement (mnemonic) techniques. Over 100 casinos, law enforcement, and casino regulatory bodies worldwide have sought his training and consulting services, which range from job-specific game protection programs for dealers, supervisors, upper management, surveillance observers, casino regulators, and law enforcement. Piacentes training programs offer live demonstrations of casino cheating techniques, real surveillance footage of thefts and scams, and the knowledge and enthusiasm that motivate participants to become more diligent on the job. When he was a teenager, Piacentes father revealed Three Card Monte scam to him, in hopes that he would not be swindled by it on the streets of New York. Fascinated by the workings of the hustle, Piacente began to read every book he could find on scams and deception, seek out anyone who would share their knowledge with him, and study both the psychological and physical prowess needed to hoodwink unwitting prey. Today, Sal Piacente carries on his fathers tradition of preventing victimization through enlightenment. It only took one trip to Las Vegas in his youth for Sal Piacente to realize he wanted work in the casino industry. He began his career as a blackjack dealer in Atlantic City, shortly after an honorable discharge from the United States Marine Corps. He also taught at a local dealing school, demonstrating game protection techniques. While visiting the school, the owner of an international casino consulting firm took notice of Piacentes talents and >passion and offered him a free-lance position conducting game protection seminars for their clients across the USA, Canada, and the Caribbean. He eagerly accepted the opportunity to broaden his horizons as well as his knowledge and student base. However, the work was unsteady, so Piacente continued to work for casinos in Atlantic City, Reno, and Las Vegas, in various positions as a dealer in all games, supervisor, pit boss, shift manager, liaison between table games and surveillance, and surveillance. In 2000, an international casino management company created a position for Piacente, Game Protection Specialist. In this capacity, he was responsible for creating and implementing game protection training programs for all table games and surveillance personnel while reviewing surveillance footage of any suspicious plays at 11 casinos around the world. Sal Piacente parted ways with the casino management company in 2006 and became the president of his own company, UniverSal Game Protection Development, Inc. His previous employer quickly put him on retainer, becoming one of his first clients. As an homage to his father, Sal Piacente wrote a book titledStreet Monte, which is an expos on the stree scam that sparked his career. He is also featured on several DVDs, demonstrating his manual dexterity:Poker Cheats Exposed, Three Shell Game, Three Card Monte,andCard Shark Secrets: How to Catch a Cheat!The profound nature of Piacentes work caught the attention of producers and led to many television appearances, includingGood Morning America(ABC),Hustling the House(Discovery),Cheating Vegas(Destination America),Casino Wars(Nat Geo), andHigh Stakes:Bet Your Life on Vegas(TLC).

He has two children and lives in Florence, Kentucky with his wife, Dee.
